COCO · Answer

Hi Sanskriti Debnath  ,

You can try a home remedy using sandalwood, orange, and some rosewater to lighten the vaginal area. Mix 1 tablespoon of sandalwood powder, 1 teaspoon of orange peel powder and 2 tsps of rose water and make it into a smooth paste. Apply it on near the vaginal area and cleanse it with water after 5mins.
